League of California Community Foundations

Mission

The League of California Community Foundations builds and strengthens California’s communities by fostering collaboration and learning among the state’s community foundations.

History

The League of California Community Foundations began as an informal statewide partnership of community foundations in 1994 when one in five Californians lived in an area with no community foundation.  Today League member foundations serve the places that over 99% of Californians call home. 

Community Foundations

Community foundations are conveners and leaders in their communities – they help identify solutions to community issues then leverage the resources of individuals, families, and businesses to support projects and initiatives led by high-impact local nonprofits.  Community foundations  pursue the long-term goals of:

  • BUILDING permanent, component funds established by many separate donors to carry out charitable interests;
  • SUPPORTING broad-based charitable interests and benefitting the residents of a defined geographic area; and
  • SERVING in leadership roles on important community issues.
